Does Vitamin C Increase the Body Heat Generated By The Nervous System?
NCT07341308 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The goals of this clinical trial are to determine whether or not vitamin C is able to: (1) increase the body heat generated by the sympathetic nervous system; and, (2) increase circulating vitamin D concentration during sympathetic nervous system stimulation in adult humans aged 18-40 years who meet the criteria for overweight based on body mass index. The main question it aims to answer are: 1. By how much does body temperature increase during stimulation of beta-adrenergic receptors when vitamin C is given. 2. By how much does circulating vitamin D concentration increase during stimulation of beta-adrenergic receptors when vitamin C is given. Participants will will be asked to: * undergo measures of body temperature * have blood sampled on two separate occasions: once during stimulation of beta adrenergic receptors, and once during stimulation of beta-adrenergic receptors while also been given vitamin C.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT07341308
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT07341308 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 20 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Colorado State University, which has 92 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 2 conditions, with Metabolism Changes appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Vitamin C is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT07341308 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Colorado. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
